< 1 Samuel 2 >
1 And Hannah prays and says: “My heart has exulted in YHWH, My horn has been high in YHWH, My mouth has been large over my enemies, For I have rejoiced in Your salvation.
Hannah ni a ratoum e teh, BAWIPA dawk ka lunghawi poung. Ka ki hah BAWIPA ni a tawm toe. Nange Rungngangnae dawk ka lung ahawi teh ka tarannaw hmalah ka minhmai a pan.
2 There is none holy like YHWH, For there is none except You, And there is no rock like our God.
BAWIPA a thoung e patetlah apihai thoung hoeh. Nang patetlah e awm hoeh. Kaimae Cathut patetlah kângue hane talung awm hoeh.
3 You do not multiply—you speak haughtily—The old saying goes out from your mouth, For YHWH [is] a God of knowledge, And actions are weighed by Him.
Hot patetlah e kâoupnae lawk dei hanh leih. Na pahni dawk hoi lunglennae lawk tâcawt hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA teh bangpueng ka panuek e Cathut lah ao teh, sak awh e pueng hah a khing.
4 Bows of the mighty are broken, And the stumbling have girded on strength.
Athakaawme taminaw e licung a kâkhoe teh a thakayounnaw thaonae a poe.
5 The satiated hired themselves for bread, And the hungry have ceased. While the barren has borne seven, And she abounding with sons has languished.
A von kapahanaw ca hane kawi a hmu nahan a tawng awh teh, a von kahlamnaw vonhlam awh hoeh toe. Napui cakaroe e ni vai sari touh ca a khe toe. A ca moikapap ka khe e napui a tha a tâwn toe.
6 YHWH puts to death, and keeps alive, He brings down to Sheol, and brings up. (Sheol )
BAWIPA teh duesakthainae, hringsakthainae, phuen totouh duesaknae hoi thawsaknae kâ a tawn. (Sheol )
7 YHWH dispossesses, and He makes rich, He makes low, indeed, He makes high.
BAWIPA ni roedengsaknae, tawntasaknae, a pabo teh tawmthainae kâ a tawn.
8 He raises the poor from the dust, He lifts up the needy from a dunghill, To cause [them] to sit with nobles, Indeed, He causes them to inherit a throne of glory, For the fixtures of earth [are] of YHWH, And He sets the habitable world on them.
A ma ni pabo e vaiphu dawk hoi a tawm teh, a tha kayoun e hraba dawk hoi a tawm teh, tami katawntanaw hoi rei tahungthainae bawilennae bawitungkhung a poe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, talai dupuinaw teh BAWIPA e lah ao. Hote adu pui dawk BAWIPA ni talaivan a kamtue sak.
9 He keeps the feet of His saints, And the wicked are silent in darkness, For man does not become mighty by power.
Ama ni a tami kathoungnaw e a khok a khetyawt han. Tamikathoutnaw teh a hmo thung dueng ao awh han. Ma e thasainae hoi apihai tâ mahoeh.
10 YHWH—His adversaries are broken down, He thunders against them in the heavens: YHWH judges the ends of the earth, And gives strength to His king, And exalts the horn of His anointed.”
BAWIPA ka taran e pueng reppasei lah a ta han. Kalvan hoi khoparit lawk hoi a tuk han. BAWIPA ni talai apout totouh lawk a ceng han. Ama e siangpahrang hah thasainae a poe han. Satui a awi e hah tawmdawm han telah a ti.
11 And Elkanah goes to Ramath, to his house, and the youth has been serving YHWH [in] the presence of Eli the priest;
Hathnukkhu hoi Elkanah teh Ramah kho e a im vah a pha. Hatei camo teh vaihma Eli koe BAWIPA e thaw a tawk.
12 and the sons of Eli [are] sons of worthlessness, they have not known YHWH.
Eli capanaw teh a rawk teh BAWIPA panuek a hoeh.
13 And the custom of the priests with the people [is that when] any man is sacrificing a sacrifice, then the servant of the priest has come in when the flesh is boiling, and [with] the hook of three teeth in his hand,
Tamimaya koe vaihmanaw oangnae teh, thuengnae moi a thawng lahunnah, vaihma e a san buet touh hoi moi sonae sum kathum samphei e a sin teh a tho.
14 and has struck [it] into the pan, or kettle, or cauldron, or pot; all that the hook brings up the priest takes for himself; thus they do to all Israel who are coming in there in Shiloh.
Ukkang thung thoseh, hlaam dawk thoseh, thawngnae hlaam dawk thoseh a cuek awh teh moi sonae sum kathum samphei hoi a rasa e moinaw hah vaihma ni ouk a la, hot patetlah hawvah ka tho e Isarel tami pueng koe Shiloh vah a sak awh.
15 Also, before they make incense with the fat, then the priest’s servant has come in and said to the man who is sacrificing, “Give flesh to roast for the priest, and he does not take boiled flesh from you, but raw”;
Hatnavah, a thâw a karê hoehnahlan, vaihma san a tho teh thuengnae ka sak e koevah vaihma hanelah pahai e moi na poe haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang koe e thawng e moi lat mahoeh. Thawng hoeh e doeh a ngai telah a dei.
16 and the man says to him, “Let them surely make incense with the fat according to the [custom] today, then take to yourself as your soul desires”; and he has said to him, “Surely you give now; and if not—I have taken by strength.”
Ahni koevah ahrei hah hmaloe karê seh, hat hnukkhu vah na ngai yit touh na la han atipouh navah, ahni ni na hoeh bo atu roeroe na poe. Na poe hoehpawiteh, beng na lawp han ouk atipouh.
17 And the sin of the young men is very great [in] the presence of YHWH, for the men have despised the offering of YHWH.
Hatdawkvah, vaihma thoundounnaw teh a yonnae BAWIPA mithmu vah a lenpoung. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA e thuengnae noutna hoeh e lah a hno awh toe.
18 And Samuel is ministering [in] the presence of YHWH, a youth girt [with] an ephod of linen;
Camo Samuel teh vaihma e angkidung a khohna teh BAWIPA hmalah thaw a tawk.
19 and his mother makes a small upper coat for him, and she has brought it up to him from time to time, in her coming up with her husband to sacrifice the sacrifice of the time.
Hothloilah, angkidung a manu ni a khui pouh teh, kumtangkuem thuengnae poe hanelah a vâ hoi a tho navah ouk a sin pouh.
20 And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, “YHWH appoints seed of this woman for you, for the petition which she asked for YHWH”; and they have gone to their place.
Eli ni Elkanah hoi a yu teh yawhawi a poe teh, BAWIPA hanelah hno na poe e heh hete napui hno lahoi BAWIPA ni na patho naseh telah atipouh. Hottelah hoiyah im lah a ban awh.
21 When YHWH has looked after Hannah, then she conceives and bears three sons and two daughters; and the youth Samuel grows up with YHWH.
BAWIPA ni Hannah teh a khetyawt teh camo a vawn teh ca tongpa kathum napui kahni touh a khe. Camo Samuel hai BAWIPA hmalah a roung.
22 And Eli [is] very old, and has heard all that his sons do to all Israel, and how that they lie with the women who are assembling [at] the opening of the Tent of Meeting,
Eli teh a matawng poung toe. Isarel pueng koe a canaw ni a sakyoe e pueng hoi kamkhuengnae lukkareiim takhang koe kamkhueng e napuinaw a ikhainae kong a thai a teh,
23 and he says to them, “Why do you do things like these? For I am hearing of your evil words from all the people—these!
Ahnimouh koe bang kecu dawk maw het patetlah e hno hah na sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hetnaw koehoi e na sak awh e hnokahawi hoeh e kong hah ka thai.
24 No, my sons; for the report which I am hearing is not good, causing the people of YHWH to transgress.
Hawi hoeh ka canaw, BAWIPA e taminaw ni a dei awh e kamthang teh kamthang kahawi nahoeh. BAWIPA e taminaw lawk na ek sak.
25 If a man sins against a man, then God has judged him; but if a man sins against YHWH, who prays for him?” And they do not listen to the voice of their father, though YHWH has delighted to put them to death.
Tami reira hah Tami buet touh ni yonnae sak pawiteh, ahni teh, lawkcengkung ni lawk a ceng han. Tami buet touh ni BAWIPA dawk yon pawiteh, apinimaw a kâhei pouh han telah ati. Hatei a na pa e lawk ngai laipalah a onae teh BAWIPA ni thei han a ngai dawk doeh.
26 And the youth Samuel is going on and growing up, and [is] good with both YHWH, and also with men.
Camo Samuel teh a roung takhang teh Cathut hoi tami e lungngai lah ao.
27 And a man of God comes to Eli and says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Was I really revealed to the house of your father in their being in Egypt, before Pharaoh’s house,
BAWIPA e tami buet touh Eli koe a tho teh, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Izip ram Faro im ao awh navah na pa e na catoun koe kamcengcalah ka kamnue nahoehmaw.
28 even to choose him out of all the tribes of Israel for a priest for Myself, to go up on My altar, to make incense, to bear an ephod before Me, and I give to the house of your father all the fire-offerings of the sons of Israel?
Ka thuengnae khoungroe koe cei hane hmuitui sawi hane, ka hmalah vaihma angki kho hane, Isarel miphun dawk hoi ahni teh ka rawi e lah awm hoeh namaw Isarel miphunnaw e hmaisawi thuengnae hai na pa e miphun koe kai ni ka poe.
29 Why do you kick at My sacrifice and at My offering, which I commanded [in] My habitation, and honor your sons above Me, to make yourselves fat from the first part of every offering of Israel, of My people?
Ka im dawk, kâ na poe e thuengnae hnonaw bangkong na khok hoi na coungroe awh. Kai hlak vah na capanaw na barihnawn, nama na kâthaw saknae dawk ka tami Isarelnaw ni thuengnae kahawi kahawi e na hno, telah a ti.
30 Therefore—a declaration of YHWH, God of Israel—I certainly said, Your house and the house of your father walk up and down before Me for all time; and now—a declaration of YHWH—Far be it from Me! For he who is honoring Me, I honor, and those despising Me, are lightly esteemed.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA Isarelnaw e Cathut ni kai ni na imthung hoi na pa imthung hah, a yungyoe ka hmalah ka thaw na tawk awh han telah kai ni na dei pouh ei, sahnin BAWIPA ni a dei e teh ka lawkkam teh kai hoi hlat naseh. Kai ka tawm e naw teh, kai ni ka tawm van han, kai bang lah ka noutna hoeh e naw teh bang lah ka noutna van mahoeh.
31 Behold, days [are] coming, and I have cut off your arm, and the arm of the house of your father, that an old man is not in your house;
Na imthung dawk matawng ka phat hoeh lah na kut hoi na miphun e a kut hah a tâtuengnae tueng a pha han.
32 and you have beheld an adversary [in My] habitation, in all that He does good with Israel, and there is not an old man in your house all the days.
Ka im dawk e a rucatnae nang ni na hmu han. Isarel miphun lathueng kahawi hno ka sak e pueng kai ni ka poe nakunghai nange miphun dawk nâtuek hai a kum kacue matawng ka phat sak mahoeh.
33 And the man of yours I do not cut off from My altar—[My purpose is] to consume your eyes, and to grieve your soul; and all the increase of men [in] your house die;
Kaie thuengnae khoungroe dawk hoi ka raphoe hoeh e nange miphun teh na mit a ro vaiteh, lungthin kamathoesakkung lah ka o sak han. Na catounnaw ni a thoundoun lahun nah a due han.
34 and this [is] the sign to you that comes to your two sons, to Hophni and Phinehas—in one day both of them die;
Na ca roi hnin touh dawk rei a due roi han. Hethateh na ca Hophni hoi Phinehas dawk ka phat hane hno doeh.
35 and I have raised up a steadfast priest for Myself; he does as in My heart and in My soul; and I have built a steadfast house for him, and he has walked up and down before My anointed all the days;
Yuemkamcu vaihma ka lungthin hoi ka pouknae dawk kaawm e ka sak e tami hah ka kangdue sak han. Kacakpounge imthung lah ka kangdue sak vaiteh a yungyoe hoi satui ka awi e hmalah ao han.
36 and it has been, everyone who is left in your house comes to bow himself to him for a wage of silver and a cake of bread, and has said, Please admit me to one of the priest’s offices, to eat a morsel of bread.”
Na im vah ka cawi rae pueng tangka hoi vaiyei a hei lahoi a cei awh han. A hmalah tabut awh vaiteh, vaiyei youn touh ka ca hanelah ka hmu thai nahan, pahren lahoi vaihma thaw na tawk sak yawkaw ati awh han telah a ti.
